Overall impression
Snow condition
Still sufficient - yesterday's rain has settled / decimated the snow in the valleys.
Snow quality
Powder, set powder, slab powder, swamp, cardboard snow! We were already spoiled the last few weeks and now we had to look for something. So below 1100 meters it was hard and difficult - from 1100-1500 good to very good powder / set powder but partly with a lot of wind = slab powder - above 1500 with a lot of wind, a hairdryer storm - snow was blown away until the back was blown free only in wind-calmed gullies and slopes good snow conditions.
Risks
Yesterday rain up to 1200 meters - above that 10-20 cm of fresh snow. Lots of wind today, danger of snow drifts/snow slabs
Overall impression
Started the tour in the morning with a little hope for removable snow - but then found better conditions! Downhill runs with great views and some good snow practically on the doorstep. When the good stuff is so close - why wander far away! An association was founded today PIV = POWDER IMPULS VEREINIGUNG (-; All five board members agreed that it was a great day in the outback.
